It's possible to use Vista Theme in XP?

matias · Post by **matias** » February 1st, 2008, 6:40 am

Hi,

I'm using lastest build of Minefield (Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9b3pre) Gecko/2008013104 Minefield/3.0b3pre) and i don't like those green back and forward icons.

It's possible to tweak something somewhere to use vista matching theme?

Thanks!.

Cheers.

Not yet that I know of. The new Vista Icons are in the build, but there is more work to enable them, and that won't happen until after the release of Beta 3, in about a week or ten days.

Yes, it is. The following method works for me on 2008013104:

Download the Vista icons from here:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=298693

Put it in your profile/chrome directory. Then, put this code in userChrome.css:

Code: Select all

.toolbarbutton-1 {
  list-style-image: url("./Toolbar_aero.png") !important;
}
toolbar[iconsize="large"][mode="icons"] #unified-back-forward-button > #back-forward-dropmarker {
  list-style-image: url("./Toolbar_aero.png") !important;
}

}

thanks for that, there is a 'stray' period in front of "toolbarbutton-1 that seems to kill all toolbars.
Also, the darn button is Still green ? hmmm

I didn't try downloading the info from the bug as I was told all the Vista icons were now included.

EDIT: That link shows the Icon set for Vista, but I'm not sure how to download, Save as ? and where in the Profile-Chrome folder ? userChrome.css ?

Very nice. I much prefer the Vista version of the theme. the colours of the navigation buttons aren't a horrible green, the curved edge on the pulldown menu looks less retarded and the refresh buttons arrow is alot more neat

Some extensions use the toolbarbutton-1 class for their toolbar buttons. The userchrome overrides the icons they set for themselves by default. Whatever is showing the messed up button is probably from an extension.

After Playing around a bit, I figured it out dump the ./ in the quotes so it looks like this instead:

.toolbarbutton-1 { list-style-image: url("Toolbar_aero.png") !important; }
toolbar[iconsize="large"][mode="icons"]
#unified-back-forward-button > #back-forward-dropmarker { list-style-image: url("Toolbar_aero.png") !important; }

At least that works for me, when I downloaded a placed the Toolbar_aero.png file into the chrome folder along with my modified userchrome.css.

First time I try to mess with userChrome, but that was quick and simple, thanks.
Hmm, full screen is broken, though, and displays all of the icons.

What about linux icons on XP?

Hmm, didn't notice this, since I rarely use full-screen mode. I'm not sure how to fix it since I'm not too good at theming, I just know my way around basic CSS.

Well, I imagine that would take a bit more tweaking. The XP and Vista icons have identical shapes for the most part, so all those -moz-image-region attributes don't need to be changed at all, but would have to be for any drastically different icons.

The only default icons that have changed for me is reload, go, and home? How do I get the rest to change? Back/forwards, go and the likes!?

wont happen since if i remember correctly they are taken from gtk (or gnome depending on if you have the gnome libs installed or not). while there is gtk for windows, firefox isnt built to use gtk in windows so it wouldnt work too well.
